How do spacecraft expell excess heat in space with nothing to convect with? askscience

Even the crew are constantly turning food into thermal energy and it's not like a refrigerator compressor can just wick it away and dump it, so how do spacecraft keep their crew from cooking themselves with their own body heat? Is it the same system that handles temp in the working machine bits of the spacecraft?
